Karaalioglu Park

Karaalioglu Park in Antalya sits atop the ancient walls of Attaleia, the harbor city that came before it, with sweeping Mediterranean views from the cliffside paths. At the peninsula's tip stands the Hıdırlık Tower, a squat Roman stone cylinder that Byzantines, Seljuks, and Ottomans each put to their own use, though what the Romans built it for in the first place has never been settled. You'll hear the competing theories historians have argued over for it. Listen near the tower itself, where the sea breeze carries furthest.
